Aykroyd has spoken once again about the prospect of a follow-up to Ghostbusters II, with the actor – who played Ray Stantz in the original – still hopeful that another sequel could emerge nearly 30 years on from the second instalment in the franchise.

“There is a possibility of a reunion with the three remaining Ghostbusters,” Aykroyd insisted during a recent appearance on AXS TV’s The Big Interview with Dan Rather. “It’s being written right now.”

With “the three remaining Ghostbusters”, Aykroyd is of course referring to the characters played by himself, Murray (Peter Venkman) and Hudson (Winston Zeddemore). Ramis, who played Egon Spengler, passed away in February 2014.

Aykroyd added: “I think Billy [Murray] will come. The story’s so good – even if he plays a ghost.”
